Process for reducing the fibrillation tendency of solvent-spun cellulose fibre

ABSTRACT

A process for treating a solvent-spun cellulose fibre to reduce its fibrillation tendency is disclosed which is characterised in that a substantially colourless chemical reagent having from two to six functional groups reactive with cellulose is applied from an aqueous system to never-dried solvent-spun cellulose fibre and is caused to react therewith under alkaline conditions.
